is with an unsoundable sadness that we learned about the Philippe Nodet
death following a fall of paragliding. January 30 2009, Philippe left
us during a flight.

He wrote the most beautiful pages about bivouac flight in the Himalayas.
It liked to rove along the Himalayans slopes in flight bivouac, to better
taming the giants. Like a mountaineer in alpine style, he likes travelling
in the air for long treks. Philippe was a romantic adventurer as there
exists few. He likes pioneers books, he was one of most famous representing

In the world of the guides, there is a relief fund. This one makes
it possible to the family to urgently avoid. It is about a contribution
of the whole of the profession. In the parapente, nothing exists. We
thus decided to open a specific relief fund for Lou and Mariette, Philippe
daughter & woman. Each one is free to take part, actor of the world
of the coasting flight, mountaineer, adventurer or friend. You can send
your gifts in the form of cheque in the name of
